LibriVox's Wind in the Willows by Kenneth Grahame read by Adrian Praetzellis. The classic story of how Rat, Mole, and the other river-bankers saved Toad from his excesses. This book has it all: excitement, sentiment, destruction of private property (plenty of that), paganism, and a happy ending. The prose is beautiful and occasionally requires the use of a dictionary - I had to look up “asperities.” Written as a children’s story, The Wind in the Willows is enjoyed by many grown-ups who...

LibriVox recording of The Wind in the Willows, by Kenneth Grahame. Read by Arthur Piantadosi and Prachi Pendse. Kenneth Grahame wrote a classic children’s tale in 1908 - he penned The Wind in the Willows. He wrote of the English countryside and the beauty of it, but more than that, he showed how even the most commonplace can be extraordinary and rare. Wind in the Willows is a tale of friendship, of adventure, of foolishness and wisdom, of travel and change as well as peace and predictability;...

This album is based on The Wind in the Willows , a book written by Kenneth Grahame and published in 1908. All songs were developed and performed spontaneously with no preconceived ideas (other than the imagery put in our heads from this book) prior to hitting the loop record button. Those loops were then arranged and voices added atop. All sounds were generated live by Limpid Green except the voices, which were performed by Adrian Praetzellis for Librivox recordings, specializing in public...

The Wind in the Willows is now often thought of as a children's book, whereas Grahame intended that it should be read by adults and children alike. I suspect modern children will struggle with some of the more spiritual aspects of this truly wonderful book. Here, Alan Bennett reads a 10 part adaptation. Enjoy.

This week it's Newcomb's pick with "The Wind In The Willows." This is the second half to the Disney double feature with "The Legend of Sleepy Hollow." Newcomb is joined by Kate Mac and Ryan as they discuss Mr. Toad and the rest of his animal gang. They also discuss a healthy dose of other stuff as expected. Where Is The Sun?

Thought I'd post this one now that I've FINALLY got an off day. This piece is both new and old. It is a spin-off of several other melodies that have been in my head for quite some time. I came up w/ the opening section of the piece several years ago during the summer as I sat under the fig tree in my front yard. Since "The Wind Through The Fig Trees" sounds somewhat ridiculous; I opted to call it "The Wind Through The Willows" instead. Hope everyone enjoys this one. It's...

Alternately slow moving and fast paced, it focuses on four anthropomorphised animal characters in a pastoral version of England. The novel is notable for its mixture of mysticism, adventure, morality, and camaraderie.

The Wind in the Willows has always been a totally magical book for me. There have been several attempts made by others to write follow on stories / sequels - this is the most successful - but for me none come near the magic of the original. I leave others to decide. Originally in 8 parts, now a single .mp3 file

One of many attempts to create a sequel to the classic "Wind in the Willows", though none have the charm of the original.

This is the story of a boy who befriends a dragon who has taken up residence in a local cave. The dragon is more into writing sonnets than maiden devouring. Nonetheless, the locals send for St. George the dragon slayer, mainly because they love a fight and are willing to make up all manner of stories to get it. Kenneth Grahame is the author of "Wind In The Willows". The text for this story may be found at www.gutenberg.org. Search authors for Grahame, Kenneth.
